First post indeed :)
We have a lot of issues to work out with the new site, obviously. Performance turned out to be a rather more urgent one than I had expected. A bit of Apache tweaking appears to have resolved the worst of it, as far as I can tell. The site is now running fairly high traffic and is reasonably responsive.
On comments and HTML: it's on my list to recognize a "plain text" comment and format it appropriately. Should have been done by now, I agree.

Speeds seems much better now thanks! And yes formatting for plain text will be much appreciated. Great work so far!

This site is gorgeous. Much nicer than the original - and being able to add comments is a major plus.

Uggh - posted too soon. The style sheet for the very front page has bugs in it - the top article text runs into the ad box. This is with Mozilla 6.2.
Formatting

Why not to provide an option to use LaTeX style formatting, i.e. one or more empty lines separate paragraph, everything within the paragraph is freely reformatted by the engine? I personally think this would solve many problems...
Structured Text?
